From award-winning author Anna Grace comes a joyful Christmas story about unexpected fresh starts.
All Charley Lansing wants for Christmas is to give her young son the most magical holiday ever. She and Oren are spending the season together—without her grinchy ex—so there’s nothing stopping them from drinking hot chocolate and enjoying Ripple Creek’s elaborate light displays. But Charley’s plans threaten to crumble like overbaked gingerbread when she scores a job helping to stage lavish prewedding celebrations at the bustling Holiday Ranch…working with Waylon Cross.
Waylon, ranch foreman and official fix-it guy, is a handsome, kind, retired national guardsman. But when it comes to choosing men, Charley no longer trusts herself to know who’s actually naughty and who’s nice. As they navigate wild requests from social media darlings and a blizzard keeps everyone snowed in, Charley and Waylon start to rely on each other’s strengths. With the days counting down toward Christmas, Oren is growing more attached to Waylon—and so is Charley. The question is, what will she do if the feeling’s mutual…
